Interview with the author:

Q – Is The Obsidian Star part of a series?

A – Yes, in fact it’s the prequel to my trilogy The Trinity Key, and I've already planned for at least two more trilogies in the series.

Q – What makes the Aether series special?

A – Aether is more than just a steampunk world. It’s a rich culture based in Celtic folklore and magic. When I set out to write the first book, I was fascinated with Celtic mythology. Mixing steampunk with mythology seemed a natural fit. I had no idea how much fun I’d have writing the trilogy.

Q – So why should readers give these books a try?

A – Because The Obsidian Star will take you on a thrilling ride full of betrayal, intrigue, and adventure. Readers who enjoy fast-paced stories full of twists and turns will adore this novella.
